"Tiny url" is just a way to make the link shorter so it fits in a usenet
post. I did a search for neocon and definition and the CSM came first and
based on my read had pretty good unbiased information on what a neocon was.

The CSM definition is, of course, more accurate. In-line with what the American
Conservative Magazine says, and almost a play book for what Buchanan uses in
his editorials against their thinking. To be a neocon, means you believe in an axis
of evil and the American Empire. The American Empire basically ended when the
forces against evil got bogged-down in a sniper war, and will never have enough
men to take on Syria, Iran, and North Korea (Americans despise empires).

Wolfowitz, bombed and survived in Baghdad, has lost all his influence with the
President when the body count went over 25, the Green zone shrank to a mile,
and the prospects of an Empire disappeared. The neocons have hit the tar baby,
and their rhetoric has returned to their radical left, and Trotskyism, which was
their breeding pool. Bush has no more use for them.
